Overnight security when trailering

Any

Oh I see. Staying in a 'NICE' place will keep the bike safe. Good luck with that.

I don’t worry about that anymore. If something happens I have insurance for that. I take my valuables in the hotel with me. If a thief steals my stuff I will rent a vehicle and go home and file a claim. Life is way too short to worry about this. You do the best you can to secure everything, go sleep and repeat as many time as life let’s you. Staying In shady parts of towns or “Hoods” will likely increase the chances of something happening versus staying at a “NICE” Hampton inn , Marriott or say Hyatt. Never a guarantee though.

When I trailered my trike to Canada last year I couldn’t conceal carry so that was not an option. My cheap Nelson. Rigg bike cover on the bike , I have a personal magnet alarm . You can also put one of these on your vehicle on the safety chain. If a thief gets a blaring shrieking alarm go off they will likely cease from trying to steal. Not a guarantee but odds are they will stop. Something like these is what I’m referring to.

If thieves are determined, nothing is going to stop them. I hide an Apple Air Tag on my trike. I don’t know instantly that the trike is moving but I will get an accurate GPS location that I can relay to the police. And if I get there before the police……..

I've read this entire thread and, IMO, if someone wants to steal a 1250 lb. trike, rolling "heavy" is about all that will stop them. That being said, I have contemplated fabricating a brake lock bar for the e-brake. That, in combination with my wheel lock and fork lock would deter most. If it's on a trailer, that along with my hitch lock, and siren would just make things that much more difficult. Personally, I could see worrying more about security with a 2 wheeler than with a fat ass, behemoth of a trike.

And if I get there before the police……..

Ok, tell us what happens if you get there before the police?

If any of my vehicles are stolen, I never want to see them again, because there is no way to know what hidden damage may exist.
